Hi, I'm Nate.

Wilmington, a loving family, good schools, then college — where I played soccer and studied economics. From the outside, everything worked. From the inside, there was a quiet distance I couldn't quite name. I was doing what was expected, and calling it a plan.

What broke me out of that wasn't a crisis. It was paying attention. A coach, a lot of reading, a lot of time outside, and a handful of conversations where I stopped performing long enough to notice what was actually true. It wasn't fast or linear. It took years, and I'm still in it.

My clients are often young men who are competent, thoughtful, and quietly stuck — on a good path that isn't quite theirs. Guys who can articulate their goals but can't quite feel them. Guys who have lived a lot in their heads.

I'm close enough to where they are to understand the texture of it, and trained enough to hold the process well. That combination is rare in coaching, and it's what I offer.

I'm certified through the New Ventures West Professional Coaching Course — one of the more rigorous integral coaching programs in the country, emphasizing whole-person, somatic, developmental work. I'm working toward my ACC credential with the International Coaching Federation.

Outside of coaching, I work at an environmental consulting firm. I spend a lot of time outdoors. I keep a lot of plants. I run, swim, and walk in that order.
